Ken het vliegtuig

The original A320 first flew in 1987 and entered service in 1988. Airbus subsequently stretched the design into the A321 and shortened it into the A319 and A318. The family made digital fly-by-wire and sidestick controls familiar to a large part of the airline world.

The A319, A321 and A320neo differ in fuselage length, engines, fuel arrangements and equipment. In the simulator, the original bundled A320neo, the later V2 aircraft and independent developers' products also have their own systems and documentation.

A different flight deck

The A320 brought side-stick controllers and a two-person glass flight deck into the Airbus single-aisle family. Its low wing carries two turbofan engines, while the airframe combines conventional construction with composite structures in selected areas. The family label spans several fuselage lengths and engine generations; cockpit resemblance alone does not identify an A319, A320 or A321, or establish what a particular simulator package includes.

A childhood flight-sim choice becomes a real cockpit

Botley had flown easyJet liveries in Microsoft Flight Simulator as a child. In March 2019, during the week of his twenty-fifth birthday, he finally joined the airline's base training in a real Airbus. His first planned turn was postponed when the aircraft had to leave before everyone completed their circuits. Four days later, at Châteauroux, he waited through his classmates' turns before climbing into the right seat himself.

The aircraft seemed much bigger outside than the simulator had conveyed. At the controls, nerves gave way to the familiar procedures of his type rating, followed by the physical sensation of the engines accelerating the aircraft. He completed six circuits and then flew part of the return to Stansted. The captain and safety pilot took over for the arrival because of the wind limits. No passengers were aboard the flight.

From empty-aircraft circuits to the first passengers

Writing as PWJ flying, the author closes his training blog after passing his British Airways line check. The final months had brought company induction, safety training, more simulator work and circuits in an empty A320 under the supervision of experienced training captains. He then moved into passenger flying around Europe, initially with a safety pilot as well as a training captain. His first line-training flight went to Venice.

He remembers that first working day as a rush of activity, despite all the preparation. There was a great deal to absorb, but he enjoyed the challenge and gradually felt at home in the right seat. Between tasks on longer sectors, the view of the Alps, Spain and the French coast offered occasional rewards. After release from training, his first regular assignment took him to Larnaca. He describes formal training ending while a pilot's development continues throughout a career.

Command as a personal milestone and an opening for others

Hoteit tells Rosalind Azouzi how a challenge at university led her to apply for airline pilot training, changing a future she had imagined in mathematics. Her career included A320 charter work from Cuba, Venezuela and the Greek islands before command training on the A320/A321. She remembers her first flight as captain, from Beirut to Amman on 16 March 2011, as her proudest career milestone.

In the interview, she connects airline flying with the ability to solve unfamiliar problems and work effectively with a different crew on each trip. Acceptance had taken time in a profession where she encountered resistance as a woman, but encouragement from colleagues and passengers mattered to her. Family support helped her combine flying, motherhood and further university study. She hoped her progress would encourage more women to enter the cockpit. This is a career account from an A320/A321 captain, rather than a handling review.

Airbus A321ceo

Free + Pro
MSFS 2020MSFS 2024X-Plane 11X-Plane 12

The original A320 first flew in 1987 and entered service in 1988. Airbus subsequently stretched the design into the A321 and shortened it into the A319 and A318. The family made digital fly-by-wire and sidestick controls familiar to a large part of the airline world.

This starting point selects Airbus A321ceo. Its aircraft-level settings do not select a particular developer’s custom systems.

The spring stays independent of airspeed. Directed aerodynamic loading is omitted.

Pitch-trim relief is off. Autopilot following is off.

Deze exacte revisie is nog niet beschikbaar voor openbare installatie.

Controls and trim

Airbus's cockpit description establishes sidesticks and digital fly-by-wire across this family. FlyByWire's A32NX documentation describes passive spring centering, separate sidestick priority and no autopilot backdrive. That A32NX account is mechanism context for the family, rather than an interface specification for Fenix, ToLiss or another add-on. Aircraft autotrim and control-law changes act on aircraft response without creating a new aerodynamic load at a passive stick.

Cockpit and flight control familiesSidestick controls

About the values

The gains are normalized profile settings. They describe the chosen effect balance; hand force depends on the device and its output limits. IAS references are tuning values rather than operating limits. Physical acceptance of this revision remains pending.

Master gain & control system

Master gain85%

De uiteindelijke totaalschaal over alles wat het model produceert, vóór de apparaatbegrenzing.

Meer: alles (veer, belastingen, effecten) wordt samen sterker.

Minder: alles wordt samen zachter.

Waarom hier: Scales overall profile strength while preserving effect balance, subject to device and output limits.

Forces

Spring strength55%

De basiscentreerkracht die de stick terug naar het midden trekt. Elke andere kracht stapelt hierop. Te laag en de stick voelt slap in normale vlucht; te hoog en hij vecht tegen je hand en maskeert de kleinere signalen erbovenop.

Meer: een steviger centreren dat de hand meer weerstaat.

Minder: een slappere stick die alleen op aerodynamische belasting leunt.

Waarom hier: Fixed centering represents the passive Airbus sidestick. Pitch and roll spring-travel curves may differ without adding direct surface-force feedback. The baseline spring is 0.55. Low-speed spring blending is off.

Cockpit and flight control familiesSidestick controls
Spring deadband1%

Een kleine neutrale zone rond het midden waar de veer stil blijft, zodat minieme bewegingen in rust niet ratelen. Breder is rustiger maar losser; smaller is preciezer maar kan rond het midden trillen.

Meer: een rustiger maar losser midden, met meer speling.

Minder: een strakker midden dat in rust kan trillen.

Waarom hier: Sets travel around the centre before the baseline spring resists. Smaller values engage it sooner.

Forces · Center starting force0.03

Waarom hier: The centre preload is 0.03. It ramps outside the 0.01 deadband across 0.05 travel, shaping the passive centre independently of aircraft autotrim.

Forces · Center starting force transition0.05

Waarom hier: Sets the travel used to ramp in centre preload. Wider intervals make its onset more gradual.

Overall aerodynamic load4%

Een masterschaal over beide aangehouden asbelastingen, toegepast vóór hun onafhankelijke balans. Profielen laten dit normaal met rust en stemmen de twee asbelastingen af.

Meer: beide assen laden zwaarder.

Minder: beide assen worden samen lichter.

Waarom hier: The stored 0.04 aerodynamic-load gain is inactive under the fixed-centre control law.

Airspeed blendingFalse

Schakelt het lage-snelheidsvenster van de veeraangrijping in (start/vol-knopen hierboven). Uit betekent een constante veer op alle snelheden.

Waarom hier: Allows baseline spring strength to rise with indicated airspeed where the control law permits it.

Low-speed spring floor50%

Hoeveel van de veer overleeft bij stilstand, voordat luchtsnelheid aerodynamische kracht kan opbouwen. Een hoge vloer houdt de geparkeerde stick stevig; een lage geeft het losse, kabelslappe gevoel van een geparkeerd licht vliegtuig.

Meer: een stevigere stick geparkeerd en tijdens taxiën.

Minder: een slappe stick geparkeerd die pas met snelheid ontwaakt.

Waarom hier: Sets low-speed spring strength as a fraction of baseline when blending is enabled. One keeps full strength.

Spring engagement start20 kt

De snelheid waarbij de veer vanaf zijn lage-snelheidsvloer richting volle sterkte begint te klimmen: de besturing die 'tot leven komt' tijdens de startrol.

Waarom hier: Sets the IAS where the low-speed spring blend starts rising. This is a feel threshold, not a flight limit.

Spring engagement full90 kt

De snelheid waarbij de veer volle sterkte bereikt. Tussen het begin en dit punt wordt het centreren geleidelijk steviger naarmate de luchtstroom over de roeren groeit.

Waarom hier: Sets the IAS where the low-speed blend reaches baseline strength; high-speed stiffening also uses it.

Snelheid voor krachtafstemming260

De aangewezen snelheid waarbij de aerodynamische belasting haar ontworpen volle niveau bereikt. Hij verankert de hele belastingscurve aan het echte snelheidsbereik van het vliegtuig: een 172 laadt op tegen 110 knopen, een jet veel later.

Meer: belastingen komen later; de stick blijft langer licht.

Minder: belastingen komen eerder en de kruisvlucht weegt zwaarder.

Waarom hier: Sets the IAS reference for aerodynamic loading. It is an estimate, not published cruise TAS or a flight limit.

Centre firmness vs speed0%

Hoeveel het centreren zelf met snelheid verstijft, bovenop de uitslagbelastingen. Nul houdt het middengevoel constant; meer laat de stick harder centreren op kruissnelheid en losser in het circuit.

Meer: een midden dat duidelijk verhardt met snelheid.

Minder: een constant middengevoel op elke snelheid.

Waarom hier: Adds permitted spring resistance above the full-blend speed. Zero removes this high-speed increase.

Centre stiffening cap5

De bovengrens van snelheidsgedreven centreerverstijving, zodat zeer snelle vlucht de veer niet onbegrensd kan opwinden.

Meer: meer totale verstijving toegestaan op hoge snelheid.

Minder: de verstijving stopt eerder.

Waarom hier: Limits the squared airspeed ratio used for high-speed spring stiffening; it is not a device-force cap.

Aileron load100%

De aangehouden rolbelasting uit rolroeruitslag en snelheid, onafhankelijk van pitch gebalanceerd. Samen met de hoogteroerbelasting bepaalt dit de stuurharmonie waar recensenten het over hebben.

Meer: zwaardere rolkrachten.

Minder: lichtere, levendigere rolroeren.

Waarom hier: Roll and pitch aerodynamic scales are 1 and 1, respectively. These stored weights do not create directed aerodynamic loading while that term is inactive. The pitch spring-travel curve reaches output 1 at input 1. The roll spring-travel curve reaches output 0.3 at input 1. Spring-travel response contributes separately to axis balance.

Elevator load100%

De aangehouden pitchbelasting uit hoogteroeruitslag en snelheid, onafhankelijk van rol gebalanceerd. Dit is de hoofdhendel achter het pitchgewicht van een type. Hij raakt rolroer-, veer-, trim- of buffetkrachten niet.

Meer: zwaardere aangehouden pitchkrachten op snelheid.

Minder: een lichter hoogteroer, minder spierkracht om vast te houden.

Waarom hier: Scales pitch aerodynamic loading; pitch spring travel and trim responses are separate settings.

Max output force55%

Een plafond op elke gestage pitch- of rolkracht voordat die het apparaat bereikt, ter bescherming tegen beuken of verzadigen van de hardware bij stevige manoeuvres.

Meer: hogere gestage krachtpieken vóór afkapping.

Minder: een zachter plafond; harde manoeuvres vlakken eerder af.

Waarom hier: Caps directed-force output. Native spring effects and device limits remain separate.

Trim

Trim relief (elevator)0%

Hoe sterk hoogteroertrim de vastgehouden pitchkracht verlicht en verschuift waar de stick tot rust komt. Op 100 % heeft een goed getrimd vliegtuig geen vastgehouden druk nodig, de trim-de-last-weg-werkwijze van echt vliegen.

Meer: trim neemt meer vastgehouden kracht weg; op 100 % heft volle trim hem op.

Minder: je blijft kracht houden, zelfs getrimd.

Waarom hier: Automatic aircraft trim is separate from the passive sidestick centre, so disabled hardware trim relief preserves the selected fixed-centre approximation. Pitch relief is off, with stored authority 0; roll authority is 0.

Cockpit and flight control familiesSidestick controls
Trim relief (aileron)0%

Dezelfde verlichting voor roltrim. De meeste GA-types hebben geen echte rolroertrim, dus dit blijft op nul; types met roltrim krijgen een passende waarde.

Meer: roltrim neemt meer vastgehouden kracht weg.

Minder: roltrim doet minder.

Waarom hier: Scales supported roll-trim relief and permitted centre movement. Zero removes roll response.

Effect gains · Ground

Runway rumble0%

Rollende oppervlaktetrilling uit wielsnelheid en ondergrondtype: asfalt, gras of grind onder het onderstel.

Meer: een sterkere oppervlaktetextuur in de stick.

Minder: gladder taxiën.

Waarom hier: Sets rolling texture strength, modified by speed, surface and undercarriage configuration.

Gear bumps0%

Korte losse stoten van uitzetvoegen, sporen en ruw oppervlak, die het doorlopende gerommel accentueren.

Meer: scherpere stoten van voegen en sporen.

Minder: zachtere gronddetails.

Waarom hier: Sets gear-bump texture during ground motion, separate from touchdown impact.

Effect gains · Airframe

Stall buffet6%

Casco-schudden bij het naderen van de overtrek en terwijl de overtrekwaarschuwing actief is: hoe luid deze vleugel aankondigt dat hij ontevreden is. Types met een scherpe afbreek krijgen bescheiden buffet en laten de hoorn de waarschuwing dragen.

Meer: een sterker trillen vóór de overtrek.

Minder: een discretere vleugel; de hoorn draagt de waarschuwing.

Waarom hier: Sets stall-buffet strength. Zero removes the cue without changing simulator stalls or warnings.

Mach buffet6%

Transsoon buffet bij het naderen van de Machlimiet. Betekenisvol voor jets nabij MMO, nul voor zuigers en turboprops die er nooit komen.

Meer: een sterker transsoon buffet nabij de Machlimiet.

Minder: gladder vliegen op hoge Mach.

Waarom hier: Sets high-Mach buffet strength; onset and full-strength thresholds are separate.

Flap buffet0%

Laagfrequente casco-trilling met kleppen uitgeslagen in de luchtstroom, in het snelheidsvenster waar ze de lucht echt bewerken.

Meer: ruwer vliegen met werkende kleppen.

Minder: zachtere naderingskleppen.

Waarom hier: Sets flap buffet at the configured position and speed gates. Flap movement texture is separate.

Gear buffet0%

Casco-getrommel van intrekbaar onderstel dat in de luchtstroom hangt. Nul voor types met vast onderstel, waar het casco nooit van vorm verandert.

Meer: meer getrommel met het onderstel uit.

Minder: schoner vliegen met onderstel uit.

Waarom hier: Sets gear aerodynamic buffet; movement and ground-contact cues are separate.

Stick shaker50%

De speciale stall-stickshakerzoem, geactiveerd door het eigen overtrekwaarschuwingssysteem van het vliegtuig. Alleen types met een echte shaker krijgen een waarde; de rest steunt op aerodynamisch buffet en de hoorn.

Meer: een hardere shaker.

Minder: een discretere shaker.

Waarom hier: Sets triggered shaker strength; inactive while the shaker feature is disabled.

Effect gains · Engine, mechanical & drag

Touchdown thump0%

De eenmalige dreun als de wielen de baan raken, geschaald op daalsnelheid: een zachte landing fluistert, een stevige aankomst bonkt.

Meer: een hardere dreun bij de landing.

Minder: zachtere aankomsten.

Waarom hier: Sets landing-impact strength; landing telemetry and response shape determine the pulse.

Reverse rumble0%

Uitroltrilling terwijl reverse thrust of props in beta werken. Nul voor types zonder reverse.

Meer: ruwer uitrollen onder reverse.

Minder: een discretere reverse.

Waarom hier: Sets reverse-thrust vibration with valid reverser and engine conditions. Zero removes the cue.

Engine rumble0%

Doorlopende motortrilling die het toerental volgt tussen stationair en vol vermogen, de altijd aanwezige herinnering dat er voorin iets brandstof verbrandt.

Meer: meer motor in de stick.

Minder: een discretere motor.

Waarom hier: Sets estimated engine vibration using configured telemetry and response, not measured cockpit vibration.

Flap motion0%

Doorlopende trilling alleen terwijl de sim meldt dat de klepvlakken daadwerkelijk bewegen. Volgt echte actuatorbeweging en storingen, geen geschatte timer.

Meer: meer trilling met bewegende kleppen.

Minder: discretere klepbewegingen.

Waarom hier: Sets texture from observed flap movement; a command without movement does not establish the cue.

Autopilot follow

AP follow authority5%

Hoe ver autopilootcommando's de stick fysiek mogen bewegen. Piepklein gehouden in MSFS, waar een bewogen as kan worden teruggelezen als pilooteninvoer; nul schakelt volgen volledig uit.

Meer: de autopiloot beweegt je stick zichtbaar meer.

Minder: een nauwelijks merkbaar volgen.

Waarom hier: Sets admitted AP-follow gain, not a percentage of travel. Runtime ownership and input limits still apply.

Spring response

SpringResponse · Travel enabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Applies the configured pitch and roll spring travel curves.

SpringResponse · Output1

Waarom hier: Sets response at the second pitch-curve point; it is an endpoint only if its input position is full travel.

SpringResponse · Output0.3

Waarom hier: Sets response at the second roll-curve point; its input position and other points determine the travel law.

Stick feel

StickFeel · Trim feel enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Retained for compatibility and group membership. Trim relief, rather than this flag, controls centre movement.

StickFeel · Trim relief enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Allows trim relief with supported control law and valid telemetry. Axis authorities set its amount.

StickFeel · Force trim enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Enables local force trim, separate from aircraft-owned trim and add-on integration qualification.

StickFeel · G load enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Allows load-factor changes to modify permitted spring laws. Passive fly-by-wire feel can suppress it.

StickFeel · Rate damping enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Enables rate damping with the configured coefficients and control law.

Autopilot

Autopilot · Follow enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Autopilot following is off; the configured spring and load retain the hardware feel. Separate neutral hold is on at strength 0.28, when a supported autopilot state admits it.

Autopilot · Neutral hold enabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Permits centering hold during a supported AP state, separate from following a moving target.

Autopilot · Neutral hold strength0.28

Waarom hier: Sets admitted AP neutral-hold strength; inactive while neutral hold is disabled.

Aero

Aero · EnabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Enables aerodynamic cues; each still needs nonzero strength and its simulator conditions.

Aero · Max flap index4

Where this effect reaches full strength (or has fully faded, for washouts).

Meer: a more gradual build to a later peak.

Minder: a quicker build.

Waarom hier: Sets the final flap index for detent normalization. UP plus three detents uses maximum index3.

Aero · Min flap index2

Where this effect begins fading in.

Meer: the effect begins later.

Minder: it begins earlier.

Waarom hier: Sets the first flap detent that admits buffet; this is a handle index, not degrees.

Aero · Shaker enabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Permits shaker at supported warning conditions; the switch does not establish aircraft equipment.

Ground

Ground · EnabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Enables ground effects; each still needs its own strength and contact or motion telemetry.

Engine

Engine · EnabledFalse

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Enables engine cues with nonzero settings and valid running-engine telemetry.

Mechanical

Mechanical · EnabledTrue

Whether this feature is active in this profile.

Waarom hier: Enables accessory cues with configured strengths and observed accessory movement.

Mechanical · Gain0

The strength of this effect.

Meer: a stronger effect.

Minder: a weaker one.

Waarom hier: Sets texture from observed gear movement, separate from aerodynamic and touchdown effects.
